AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The readings at the Water Rat Hotel at the edge of the city in South Melbourne lived in interesting times. They broke the lull. Writers responded to September 11, Tampa and paused to watch Cathy Freeman run. Audience and readers came from all over: country Victoria, interstate and overseas. Said the Rat! celebrates those nights.'
